Answers
Q: What should I wear to a onegoodfriday event?
A: Casual or busines-casual clothing is perfect
for our events.
Q: How do you determine who sits with whom at an event?
A: After our pairing system determines the 7 best matches
for you, we then print your results on to your datesheet. This sheet
provides you with your schedule for the event. The schedule will
indicate for each dating time slot where in the venue you will be
and whom you will meet.
Q: How does the event work? What happens at the event?
A: The evening of the event has arrived, and you're
ready to meet someone special. You'll want to arrive at the event
15-30 minutes prior to the start. Upon arriving at the door, you'll
be greeted by the Event Director and given your date list. This
list will show you the table number and identification of your 7
dates. You may have come directly from work, so help yourself to
some food from one of the complimentary party trays. After eating
and mingling for a few minutes, the event begins. You will have
7 10 minute dates with a 20 minute intermission in between the 4th
and 5th dates. In between each date, you'll have a couple of minutes
to jot down a few notes about each date. After you've had your dates,
feel free to hang out and chat with other event attendees. If you’re
hungry, you’ll want to take advantage of the food and beverage
discounts provided exclusively to our attendees. The order that
you place during intermission will be ready by the time you've finished
your last date. Perhaps you’ll enjoy a first dinner with someone
special!
The event is over and now you're excited to know
if the feelings are mutual between you and the dates with whom you
had the most interest. All you need to do to find out is return
to the onegoodfriday site within 48 hours, login, and submit your
dating results into our results form. Within 48 hours, you'll receive
an email from us with a list of those people with whom you matched,
along with their email addresses. That's it! At this point, it's
up to you to follow up with your matches, and make plans for a future
meeting.
Q: What are the minimum/maximum number of participants at
an event?
A: We won't confirm anyone who has signed up for
an event until at least 7 men and 7 women have signed up so the
minimum number of participants is 14. The maximum number of participants
depends on the venue where a particular event is held.
Q: Will food and drinks be provided at the event?
A: Generally we provide some light appetizers
during event check-in. During intermission you will have the opportunity
to order food that will be ready immediately following your last
date. Regardless of whether or not you order anything to eat or
drink, you're welcome to stay after and socialize with other event
attendees!
Q: How long do onegoodfriday events last?
A: Our events last approximately two hours. During
intermission you will have the opportunity to order food that will
be ready immediately following your last date. Regardless of whether
or not you order anything to eat or drink, you're welcome to stay
after and socialize with other event attendees!
Q: What sort of questions do you suggest I ask the people
I meet?
A:The only rules we have are that you can't ask
other attendees for any contact information such as their full names
their phone numbers, their addresses, their email addresses, etc.
and you can't ask questions with lewd or sexual insinuations. You
are free to ask general questions like what part of town a person
lives in or works in or where he or she works, but please be understanding
and respectful of those who view these questions as overly personal
and choose not to answer them. Apart from those types of questions,
what you ask is really up to you! Our only advice is that you make
sure you ask questions that will help you get a sense of whether
or not the people you're meeting are people you'd like to have further
contact with.
Q: Why do I need to arrive at the event 15-30 minutes before
it begins?
A: We want to make sure we're able to get everyone
properly checked in and ready to go for the event. Plus, we generally
have some complimentary appetizers available during the check-in
period.
Q: Is it possible that I might end up dating the same person
more than once at an event?
A: No, you won't ever date the same person twice
at one event. Remember, our intelligent pairing system will be used
to pair you up with your dates prior to the start of the event.
Q: Can I attend a onegoodfriday event for which I am older
or younger than the event age range?
A: No. Our system will not allow you to register
for an event for which you are not in the event's age range. The
reason for this is that the registrants of the opposite sex will
be expecting to meet people of the age range specified.
Q: Is it possible to participate without registering in
advance?
A: No. Our intelligent pairing functionality is
dependent upon you filling out our pairing questionnaire. Therefore,
you may not attend an event unless you complete the registration
online and are subsequently confirmed for the event.
Q: Do I have to use a credit card? Can I send a check or
pay cash at the door?
A: You must use a credit card and pay in advance
when you register. The reason for this is that we need to know that
you're serious about attending the event for which you register
because it is imperative that our events have an even ratio of men
and women.
Q: Do you have events in my area?
A: Please use our Find An Event form to find out!
On the form you will select your state and city. When you press
the submit button, you will be presented with the events in your
area, if any.
Q: Can I show up late?
A: It is very important that you arrive 15-30
minutes early for your event. If you know that you will not be able
to arrive early for an event, please do not register for it. We
will not delay the start of the event for late attendees. Therefore,
if you are late you will not only impact yourself by missing out
on part of the event, you will impact all those with whom you have
been paired for the event. Please be considerate of others and arrive
15-30 minute prior to the start of the event for which you are registered.
Q: When will I find out if I am confirmed for the event?
A: We will send you an email as soon as your registration
is confirmed.
Q: What nights of the week are the events held on?
A: It varies from event to event. Typically, onegoodfriday
events are held on weeknights.
Q: Will you have an event in my area?
A: Soon we hope! We'd like to bring our events
to Christians everywhere just as soon as we can! Realistically,
though, not all areas have enough of a Christian population to support
our events. The best way to let us know that you're interested in
a onegoodfriday event in your area is fill out our Be Informed form.
Q: Can I register with a debit card?
A:Yes, as long as it is a Visa, MasterCard, Discover,
or American Express "check card."
Q: How do I cancel my registration?
A: Please contact us via the information on our
Contact Us page.
Q: Can I use my credit card to sign up a friend?
A: No, each attendee must register separately
and use a separate credit card.
Q: What if I don't have an email address?
A: Get one! A vast number of companies offer free
email accounts that you can check via a web browser. Try www.msn.co.uk
(hotmail).
Q: How do I find out if my registration was completed successfully?
A: Go back to the registration area for the event
and put in either your username or email address and your password
and attempt to log in. If you can't log in successfully, your registration
was not completed successfully. If you can log in successfully and
you're already registered, a message will tell you that you're already
registered.
Q: Is registering with onegoodfriday over the Internet safe?
A: We use SSL technology to encrypt the entire
registration process and make the likelihood of any of your personal
information being intercepted by a third party very remote.
Q: An error screen came up during my registration. Did my
registration go through?
A: Unfortunately, no. We apologize for the error
and humbly ask you to please submit your registration again.
Q: May I attend a onegoodfriday event even if I don't have
a computer?
A: Absolutely! You will, however, need to
have access to a friends computer so that you can register for your
chosen event and put in your matches after the event afterwards:)
Have fun - all at onegoodfriday.
